Over the years we've tried growing a few things on the balcony. Tomatoes (so-so luck),lettuces (good success, but short season), etc.

The one thing we always seem to have roaring good luck with is peppers.

We're still eating the dried hot peppers from last year, so we didn't need any more of those.This year we decided to try banana peppers, and as you can seethe results have been rather good (if we do say so ourselves)

Although we seem to have let them get well beyond the 'banana' stage!

Of course, herbs are a given!

Here's the parsley, being overwhelmed by the Thai Basil & the Basilico Gargantua(don't you just love that name?!)
